An unmanned Iranian drone allegedly on a spying mission was shot down by a Pakistan Air Force (PAF) JF-17 Thunder fighter jet in Balochistan’s Panjgur area, official sources confirmed.
The officials said the unmanned aircraft was shot down by a JF-17 in the Parom area of Panjgur district after it ventured “deep inside Pakistani airspace” on a spying mission.
They spoke on condition of anonymity as they were not authorised to speak to media.
Security forces took custody of the debris after discovering the wreckage on Monday, but it is still unclear when the drone was shot down.
